Renovations were needed to the network of brick pathways that ran throughout the garden and these repairs were completed in August of 2005.

When the dust settled, eight open parterres remained along the outer edges of the formal garden. These areas were planted using perennials and bulbs in a palette of blue and yellow. This new plant material ensures that there will be visual interest in every season, however the best 'flower show' appears during the spring and late summer.
